Pros

Invested in technology and once you build a track record the management gives you a lot of leash. You can do any type of trading but you have to teach yourself it all.

Cons

Very little guidance on strategies. Half of the company trades like its the Tech Bubble/Bust where they just pay offers on new highs and hit bids on new lows, where there is another half with actual strategies, ie. merger arb, end of the day imbalances, etf NAV arb, stat arb.

Pros

It was cool to share the trading floor with a bunch of other traders. Enjoyed company happy hours. Good tech and back office. Hands off management

Cons

Affiliated with SMB Capital by name only, Mike and Steve would show up on occasion, it was like no one even knew them. very different management and trading styles. Floor manager has too much clout, He wants everyone to swing trade like him.
